The Evolution of Revolution.
Light enough for all-mountain and trail riding, tough enough for downhill, we wanted a crank that would be perfect on any bike in the stable and offer a competitive advantage while looking good. Backed by years of real-world abuse, our cranks have earned a reputation for unmatched durability.
We've been perfecting short cranks longer than anyone, delivering a low-profile aluminum crankset with industry-leading strength-to-weight and the shortest lengths available. In line with the forward thinking of our ultra-thin Crampon pedal series,
Canfield AM Cranks offer forged aluminum cranks in lengths all the way down to 150-millimeters. Why? Clearance is just the beginning.
Shorter cranks boost pedaling efficiency by reducing dead spots and keeping you in the power zone longer. They promote a more natural pedal stroke, reduce joint fatigue, and help you clean tight technical moves without pedal strikes.
From the gravel grinding to the rock garden, shorter cranks simply work better.
Available in flat black and NEW silver anodized finish's with raised polished external ribbing that prevents the heel rub and wear typical of most cranks. Canfield Cranks—the evolution of revolution.

I have had a set of the AM cranks on my hardtail for a year and a half. It has remained silent and utterly trouble free despite my best efforts. It has been so good I put a set on my full suspension bike after some vexing creaking that I could not rectify coming from a more notably fancier set-up. There are no preload rings, spacers or other bits to futz with. You have a single bolt on the non-drive side that needs to be tightened down. That's it. I guess you might possibly complain that Canfield uses the older GXP bottom bracket size. So you are on the hook for a another bottom bracket, but this isn't really a big deal as GXP BB's are easy to source (I literally walked into a nearby lbs and they had some). Even if you want something fancy you can get versions that are GXP compatible from Wheels Mfg and Chris King that will work. They look great too. Five outta five Ozzy fingers.
These are my favorite cranks. Perfect blend of price, flexibility, and performance. My knees thank you.
Great cranks and support for home mechanics. Small bike companies are killing it right now, and these cranks are no exception. Perfect length (finally, after so many years!) and the sizing guide and installation documentation were very clear and helpful as someone who wrenches on their own bike.
These words are my own, but I'm leaving this review as part of a promotion.
Quick note - this may not be applicable when you read this but the facade on the side of the cranks sent to me was different than what is shown on the site. Mine has the skull logo rather than the C logo. Totally fine and the general style was what I expected so not a problem for me, but something to be aware of.
First ride with my new cranks today. Switched from the 170s that came with my bike to 160. Being on the shorter side loved all the options. They were great and noticed a difference instantly. Awesome customer service as well! Highly recommend.
Have had these on my Tilt for a few years now. (165mm)
They just work, really well.
Just took mine apart, cleaned them up, and slapped them back on.
Super easy! And they work well with a Chris King BB, ceramic (of course)
I don't go crazy and hit massive features. But at 240 lbs, I've never once worried about these cranks.
Hey Krigloch,
That’s what we’re talking about! Those cranks are meant to be simple, strong, and easy to wrench on — glad they’re holding up like a tank. This review’s proof they’re built right! Appreciate you sharing the stoke. Cheers!
These cranks have been a revelation for me - affordable, burly 150mm cranks have genuinely transformed the way the bike feels.
I've got very short legs for my height, and have always struggled with feeling in control of the bike. Dropping from 165mm to these 150mm cranks feels amazing, and they look sick too 🤘🏽I got silver arms with the orange chainring.
Massive shout out to the customer service as well - from initial enquiries about BB compatibility and sizing up until after delivery, Lance and Lester have been responsive, friendly and helpful at every turn, even with shipping to the UK.
Super-happy with the decision to choose these cranks, strong recommend 🤘🏽
Hey Mike,
This totally made our day. So glad to hear the 150s are working out for you—that’s exactly what we love to hear. Silver cranks with the orange ring? Straight-up rad. Big thanks for the shoutout on the support too. It was a blast helping you get dialed, and we’re beyond stoked on this review. Appreciate you flying the Canfield flag in the UK. Keep charging!
Great customer service. They even contacted me about new color options that became available after my order was placed, but before it had shipped.
Cranks look and work great. Very happy with them.
Hey Casey,
Really appreciate the kind words—stoked to hear you’re happy with the cranks, and glad we could catch you in time with the new color options.
Enjoy the ride, and keep crushing it out there!
